Episode Details

Let the plots begin to unfold as the Stanley Cup Playoffs opened over the weekend with seven of the eight series beginning to tell their respective stories. Perhaps no tale was better than in Buffalo where, after a decade-an-a-half of waiting, fans in Western New York were treated to a stirring comeback at the hands of the rival Bruins.

Elsewhere, some favorites held serve as expected while a couple of others stunned their hosts.

Finally, the number of hits more than doubled from that of a regular season game according to stats compiled by the NHL. Really? Let's get to the definition of a hit and go from there.
